Astral Freak - Ben Arnold ( from the album 'Almost Speechless' )

intro: F#         B G#m

F#                      C#                          B
 Found a penny head was up, all day long I had such luck
        F#              C#
'Till I heard somebody mention
F#                   C#                                 B
There's a ladder overhead, one more step you might fall dead
            F#             C#
I know they had the best intention
F#                      C#             B               B
 Smashed a mirror yesterday, now seven years and seven days
         F#             C#
I could simply plan for failure
F#                         C#                                 B
 A native myth that I once heard, a dream to catch with every bird
             F#             C#
I guess that don't sound so peculiar

            F#             B                              F#
Cause I'm a studied astral freak, my superstition runs so deep,
                  C#
It's a Taurean malfunction
F#                     B                                  F#
 Somewhere on the zodiac, I just get lost and I can't get back,
                C#
Point me in the right direction
G#m   F#    C#   B
oooo hoooo hooo hoooo

Full the moon shines big and proud, lightning strikes out from a cloud,
It's that man or woman up there, slowly glides across the board,
Ouija spells out my name sort of, and I am rendered almost speechless

Cause I'm a studied astral freak, my superstition runs so deep,
It's a Taurean malfunction
Somewhere on the zodiac, I just get lost and I can't get back,
Point me in the right direction
